At PaCo we pledge to:
- only buy food from local producers for our events
- ban disposable plastics from our events and activities
- shift digital-only procedures regarding internal bureaucracy

We make a pledge for the ocean so we can significantly reduce our impact on Earth, particularly by reducing our overall consumption and our CO2 (and other GHG) emissions. We aim for a healthy, clean and sustainable ocean; that is only possible if we think global and act local.
Apart from the 3 actions we stated, we are working on 70 other actions, which, if fully implemented, will allow us to save 24 000kWh/year, 1500 kg paper/year and 950 m3 water/year. Moreover, we will be able to save up to 180kg of plastic each year but removing single-use plastics form our centre. Once we are able to shift to green energy we will reduce our energy footprint by 53%, meaning we will avoid the production of 250 t CO2e.
